When you say “distinct compute nodes,” are they at least on the same network 
fabric?

If so, the first thing I’d try would be to create a new partition that 
encompasses all of the nodes of the other two partitions.

Subject: [slurm-users] Running an MPI job across two partitions

Hi,

I'm running Slurm 19.05 version.

Is there any way to launch an MPI job on a group of distributed  nodes from two 
or more partitions, where each partition has distinct compute nodes?

I've looked at the heterogeneous job support but it creates two-separate jobs.

If there is no such capability with the current Slurm, I'd like to hear any 
recommendations or suggestions.

Thanks,
Chansup
